University of French Polynesia
The University of French Polynesia (French: Université de la Polynésie française) is a French university located in Puna'auia, French Polynesia.
Created by a decree of May 29, 1987, the university was originally called French Pacific University and was split between two sites, one located in New Caledonia (now University of New Caledonia) and the other in Tahiti. The administrative headquarters of the university was in Papeete. Both centers have become autonomous with the Decree No. 99-445 of 31 May 1999.
The University of French Polynesia is based in Outumaoro, Punaauia, Tahiti. The number of students is growing steadily, with a significant increase of over 60% since 1999, and so has the range of course offerings. As of 2019, the number of students reached 2898.
The University of French Polynesia is often the talk of local newspapers, especially because of its proactive policy for the employability of its graduates. One can mention, among others, the Employers' Forum, the sponsorship of class valedictorians by private companies, the Public Employment Fair, the innovative teaching methods developed by the academic community.
The university is headed by the President, who has authority over all the staff. He/she determines the policy of the institution with the assistance of the Board. As the executive authority, the President prepares and implements the multi-year contract with the French Ministry of Higher Education and concludes agreements and conventions on behalf of the university. The President is the chief officer of revenue and expenditure for the university budget and responsible for maintaining order. He/She is elected for a four-year term by a majority of elected Board members.
Professor Eric Conte was elected President of the University of French Polynesia on June 23, 2011.
Conte is assisted by four vice-presidents :
The Board (CA) determines the policy of the institution. As such, it adopts the budget after a fiscal policy debate. It approves agreements and conventions signed by the President. In addition, upon the proposal of the President, it fills positions allocated to the university. It reviews and adopts rules and approves the annual report of the president.
